I find news and current events seeping into my work, as a vehicle to process events of the world. The dark days of the last presidential administration were fuel, and the continuation of the era finds voice in my work still. Whether connecting the dots, finding holes in the rationale, or considering how the flag has been weaponized, different ways of exploring this has resulted in new work. The presidential administration from 2016 to 2020 was a circus. Making work about the dismal display by so many was one way to cope.
